Men’s water polo
targets Corvallis
■The Oregon Club Sports
team is rolling into this
weekend’s games after
improving in New Mexico
By Dylan Darling
for the Emerald
The Oregon Club Sports water
polo team heads into a tourna
ment this weekend in Corvallis
hot after a strong showing in Al
buquerque, N.M.
The Ducks are 9-5 after going 4
2 en route to a fifth place finish in
Albuquerque. They were proud
of their effort because of the tough
competition they faced, said An
thony Tran, a freshman biology
major.
“A lot of those teams were real
ly good,” Tran said. “We got a lot
of experience there.”
At Ore
gon State
this week
end the
team will
play about
five games
in the 10
team tournament. Saturday will
feature pool play, with Sunday’s
championship playoff bracket
formed from the pool result, said
Ben Gottileb, a senior in sociolo
gy
The tournament will include
high school all-star teams as well
as masters club teams, which are
teams made up of former college
players and other older water
polo players.
The team is optimistic about its
chances in Corvallis.
“I’m expecting to win,” said
Gottileb.
He is not alone in his expecta
tions for the weekend.
“I think we will do well,” Tran
said. “We are looking to beat
OSU.”
That is something the team has
yet to do in five tries against the
Beavers dating back since the past
CC I think we will do
well. We are looking to
beat OSU.

fall season.
The setbacks against Oregon
State have not stopped the Ducks
from improving, Gottileb said.
He said the team’s improve
ment is because of consistent
goalie play and an increased ef
fort by the veteran players on the
team.
While it is a men’s club team,
women are also allowed to play.
The only woman on the squad,
Amanda Studdard, has had a big
impact since joining the team ear
lier this spring.
“She’s amazing,” Gottileb said.
“She’s been the motivation that
turned the team around.”
Oregon students have one more
chance to see the improvement
the team has made this season.
The last home game for the team
and its four seniors is next
Wednesday at 8:30 p.m. at the
Leighton Pool. The game is free to
students and Gottileb urged peo
ple to come and support the team.
Portland dedicates
latest win to coach
By Arnie Stapleton
The Associated Press
MINNEAPOLIS — All Scottie
Pippen needed was a pen.
He placed a basketball on the
table in front of him after the Port
land Trail Blazers eliminated the
Minnesota Timberwolves from the
NBA playoffs.
“That’s the game ball,” he said
with a smile. “All the players and
coaches are going to sign it, and
we’re going to give it to Coach
Muss.”
Blazers assistant Bill Mussel
man , a former Timberwolves coach,
is hospitalized in Rochester with
cancer.
“We dedicated this series and
this win to him,” Pippen said.
Muss'elman had planned on sit
ting behind the Blazers’ bench at
Target Center, but doctors wouldn’t
let him leave St. Mary’s hospital,
where he’s being treated for multi
ple myeloma, a malignancy of the
bone marrow.
“One of our coaches is in the hos
pital fighting for his life,” Brian
Grant said. “We wanted to fight for
him.”
The Blazers beat the Wolves 85
77 Tuesday night, winning the se
ries 3-1. They’ll face the Seattle
Utah winner in the second round.
"Basically we dug down and got
this one for Coach Muss,” Rasheed
Wallace said. “That’s what every
body is riding on. Our prayers are
with him.”
Musselman was also on the
minds of the Wolves.
He was their first coach and also
coached at the University of Min
nesota, where he recruited Flip
Saunders, who now coaches the
Timberwolves.
Sam Mitchell played for Mussel
man in the CBA and said Mussel
man miderstood when he went to
Europe for a bigger paycheck. He
said Musselman promised him a
job in the NBA when he rose
through the ranks.
“Coaches tell you that all the
time, but he remembered me,”
Mitchell said. “He didn’t forget me
and he signed me. He gave me my
break. I mean, I love Muss. I’ll al
ways remember what he did for
me.”
Mitchell had a solid game Tues
day night but couldn’t prevent the
Wolves from losing in the first
round for the fourth straight year.
“I think Minnesota prepared us
well for the rest of the playoffs,”
Pippen said. “They make you work
on defense for 24 seconds. The se
ries seemed tougher and longer
than four games.”
The Wolves were 40-4 in the reg
ular season when leading after three
quarters but 0-2 in the playoffs.
Six players scored in double fig
ures for the Blazers.
“It’s nice when you play team
ball and everyone can contribute,”
said Wallace, who scored 15 points.
“More than anything, we wanted to
get the win; our coach is hospital
ized and we wanted to get one for
him.”
